Hi,

When initializing in ANSYS Fluent 2021R2, I want to patch two different regions to have their own initial temperatures. These two regions are my two cell zones. I want to patch region 1 to have an intial temperature of X and region 2 to have an initial temperature of Y. Is there a quick way to make cell registers out of my cell zones so I can patch these two regions separately?

Thank you

If the region is a fluid zone with a unique label initialise the whole model then patch each zone in turn. We only use registers if the patch region isn't a single (or few) whole cell zone(s). So, in the below I'd patch fluid-out-1 then fluid-out-2 rather than create a register of each zone then patch them.

I see, that actually makes life a lot easier, thank you!
